Watson to replace mike hussey

Have heard watson had a good batting session and may replace mike hussey for the 2nd test.
I dunno if he match fit.
whether he can field.
If he can bowl.
All i know is runour mongreing around he will replace hussey and is breathing down his neck.
Anyone know his status at the moment.

I seriously hope that its just a rumour, would be annoyed as hell if we drop Huss.

Haa...this is why the non selection of the extra batsman in Hodge or D Hussey was blunder. Of course i'd still back M Hussey to come good. But in the unlikely event that ENG bowling attack does come good in this series or one of bats gets injured a solid back-up would be needed.

Watto although he does have the potential to bat in the top 5 in tests, isn't there yet. His ONLY role is to be the all-rounder batting @ 6.

Haha yeah, would be a shocking decision, not least because Hussey is the 2nd best Australian batsman.

I don't see it happening. I have said numerous times that throughout or at the conclusion of this series if Hussey fails to make runs he should, and probably will, be dropped, but I didn't expect it to happen after the first test, if of course it happens.

I'd assume is this happens, North will manage at 5, with Watson coming in at 6 as a pure batsmen, leaving the rest of the team the same, unless Hauritz and Clark swap.
